Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Mischvorrichtung für Mehrkomponentenkunststoffe, insbesondere Polyurethan, mit einer Mischkammer, die Eintrittsöffnungen für die einzelnen Komponenten und eine Austrittsöffnung für das Komponentengemisch besitzt, sowie mit einem Steuerorgan, das zwischen einer die Eintrittsöffnungen offenlassenden Stellung und einer die Eintrittsöffnungen zur Mischkammer absperrenden Stellung hin- und herbewegbar ist, wobei das Steuerorgan als ein einen unabhängig steuerbaren Ausstoßkolben enthaltender Hohlkolben ausgebildet ist, dessen der Mischkammer zugekehrte Stirnfläche die der Austrittsöffnung gegenüberliegende Mischkammerwand bildet, wobei sich an die Austrittsöffnung ein Auslaufrohr mit gegenüber dem Mischkammerquerschnitt geringerem Querschnitt anschließt, durch das der mit gleichem Querschnitt ausgebildete Ausstoßkolben hindurchbewegbar ist.The invention relates to a mixing device for multicomponent plastics, in particular polyurethane, with a mixing chamber which has inlet openings for the individual components and an outlet opening for the component mixture, and with a control member which between a position which leaves the inlet openings open and a position which blocks the inlet openings to the mixing chamber Position can be moved back and forth, the control element being designed as a hollow piston containing an independently controllable ejection piston, the end face of which faces the mixing chamber forms the mixing chamber wall opposite the outlet opening, with an outlet pipe adjoining the outlet opening having a smaller cross section than the mixing chamber cross section, through which the ejection piston formed with the same cross section can be moved through.

Bei bekannten Mischvorrichtungen der vorstehend genannten Art dient der Ausstoßkolben als Reinigungskolben für die Austrittsöffnung und das Auslaufrohr (DE-OS 25 50 334) oder zur Drosselung des Zulaufs des Komponentengemischs zur Austrittsöffnung (DE-OS 28 15 460). Mit solchen Mischvorrichtungen können in vielen Fällen ausreichende Mischergebnisse erzielt werden, da die Austrittsöffnung einen geringeren Querschnitt als die Mischkammer aufweist, wodurch das Mischergebnis positiv beeinfluß wird. Wenn höhere Anforderungen an die Mischqualität gestellt werden, d.h. wenn beispielsweise in offene Formen eingefüllt werden soll - dieses erfolgt überwiegend mit Mischvorrichtungen mit einem mechanischen Rührer, die im Niederdruckbereich arbeiten - dann ist das Mischergebnis häufig nicht ausreichend.In known mixing devices of the type mentioned above the ejection piston serves as a cleaning piston for the outlet opening and the outlet pipe (DE-OS 25 50 334) or for throttling the inflow of Kom onentengemischs p to the outlet opening (DE-OS 28 15 460). Sufficient mixing results can be achieved in many cases with such mixing devices, since the outlet opening has a smaller cross section than the mixing chamber, which has a positive influence on the mixing result. If higher demands are placed on the mixing quality, ie if, for example, filling is to be carried out in open molds - this is mainly done with mixing devices with a mechanical stirrer that work in the low-pressure range - the mixing result is often not sufficient.

Mischvorrichtungen, bei denen die Mischung mechanisch durch einen Rührer durchgeführt wird, sind in den unterschiedlichsten Ausführungsformen bekannt. Die zu mischenden Komponenten werden der den Rührer enthaltenden Mischkammer durch entsprechende Leitungen und über synchron gesteuerte Ventile zugeführt. Normalerweise befindet sich die Austrittsöffnung auf der der Rührerwelle abgelegenen Seite. Nachteilig bei diesen Mischvorrichtungen ist jedoch, daß sie durch Spülmittel und/oder Preßluft gereinigt werden müssen. Darüberhinaus ist es erforderlich, den Rührer in mehr oder weniger großen Zeitabständen aus der Mischvorrichtung auszubauen, um eine vollständige, gegebenenfalls mechanische Reinigung durchzuführen.Mixing devices in which the mixing is carried out mechanically by means of a stirrer are known in a wide variety of embodiments. The components to be mixed are fed to the mixing chamber containing the stirrer through corresponding lines and via synchronously controlled valves. The outlet opening is normally on the side remote from the stirrer shaft. A disadvantage of these mixing devices, however, is that they have to be cleaned with detergent and / or compressed air. In addition, it is necessary to remove the stirrer from the mixing device at more or less large intervals in order to carry out a complete, if appropriate mechanical, cleaning.

Es war nun Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Mischvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die auch unter kritischen Bedingungen für eine gute Mischgüte sorgt, und die außerdem, falls erforderlich, leicht gereinigt werden kann.It was an object of the invention to provide a mixing device of the type mentioned at the outset which ensures good mixing quality even under critical conditions and which, if necessary, can also be easily cleaned.

Diese Aufgabe wird grundsätzlich dadurch gelöst, daß der Hohlkolben drehbar ist und seine Stirnfläche zur Mischung der Komponenten mit der angußseitigen Mischkammerwand einen veränderbaren Scherspalt bildet.This object is basically achieved in that the hollow piston is rotatable and its end face for mixing the components with the gate-side mixing chamber wall forms a variable shear gap.

Erfindungsgemäß erfolgt die Vermischung der Komponenten durch die Relativbewegung der den Scherspalt bildenden Flächen, wobei die Mischgüte durch die Wahl des Anstellwinkels dieser paßförmigen Flächen gegenüber der Kolbenachse, durch die Snaltweite sowie durch die Winkelgeschwindigkeit des Hohlkolbens variiert werden kann. Die Reinigung der Mischkammer wird dadurch vorgenommen, daß die Stirnfläche des rotierenden Hohlkolbens gegen die Mischkammerwand im Bereich der Austrittsöffnung gepreßt wird, und die von den Flächen abgeriebenen Gemischreste von dem Ausstoßkolben aus dem zylinderförmigen Auslaufrohr ausgetragen werden. Die Mischvorrichtung nach der Erfindung kann sehr unterschiedlich gestaltet und in sehr unterschiedlicher Weise eingesetzt werden. So ist es möglich, die den Scherspalt bildenden Flächen insgesamt nicht-eben und zumindest angenähert komplementär zueinander auszubilden. Damit läßt sich eine vorlauf- und nachlauffreie, besonders intensive Vermischung der Komponenten erreichen, da die mehrfache Umlenkung des Komponentengemischs zu einem weitgehend laminaren, ruhigen Strömungsverhalten des Gemischstroms führt.According to the invention, the components are mixed by the relative movement of the surfaces forming the shear gap, the mixing quality being able to be varied by the choice of the angle of attack of these fitting surfaces with respect to the piston axis, by the gap width and by the angular velocity of the hollow piston. The cleaning of the mixing chamber is carried out in that the end face of the rotating hollow piston is pressed against the wall of the mixing chamber in the region of the outlet opening, and the mixture residues rubbed off by the surfaces are discharged from the cylindrical outlet pipe by the discharge piston. The mixing device according to the invention can be designed very differently and used in very different ways. It is thus possible for the surfaces forming the shear gap to be non-planar overall and at least approximately complementary to one another. This makes it possible to achieve a particularly intensive mixing of the components that is free of lead and follow-up, since the multiple deflection of the component mixture leads to a largely laminar, quiet flow behavior of the mixture flow.

In besonders vorteilhafter Weise läßt sich die Mischvorrichtung nach der Erfindung mit einem an sich bekannten Injektionsmischer kombinieren, der der Mischvorrichtung nach der Erfindung vorgeschaltet ist. Dieser Injektionsmischer kann einen Kolben aufweisen, der sicher für eine mechanische Zwangsreinigung sorgt. Die diesem Injektionsmischer nachgeschaltete Mischvorrichtung mit drehbarem Hohlkolben sorgt für eine noch bessere Mischungsintensität, insbesondere bei hohen Anforderungen und kritischen Produkten, beispielsweise füllstoffhaltigen Polyurethanen.In a particularly advantageous manner, the mixing device according to the invention can be combined with an injection mixer known per se, which is connected upstream of the mixing device according to the invention. This injection mixer can have a piston that reliably ensures mechanical forced cleaning. The mixing device downstream of this injection mixer with a rotatable hollow piston ensures an even better mixing intensity, in particular for high requirements and critical products, for example polyurethanes containing fillers.

Weitere Vorteile und Einzelheiten der Erfindung werden unter Hinweis auf die Zeichnungen anhand zweier Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert.Further advantages and details of the invention are explained in more detail with reference to the drawings using two exemplary embodiments.

Gemäß Fig. 1 besteht die Mischvorrichtung aus einem Gehäuse 1, in dem eine Mischkammer 2 ausgebildet ist. An die Mischkammer schließt sich ein Auslaufrohr 3 an. Die Austrittsöffnung der Mischkammer ist mit 4 bezeichnet. In die Mischkammer führen Vorlaufleitungen über Eintrittsöffnungen 5 und 6.1, the mixing device consists of a housing 1 in which a mixing chamber 2 is formed. An outlet pipe 3 connects to the mixing chamber. The outlet opening of the mixing chamber is designated 4. Flow lines lead into the mixing chamber via inlet openings 5 and 6.

In der Mischkammer 2 ist ein Hohlkolben 7 drehbar angeord- net, der einen Ausstoßkolben 8 enthält. Dieser Ausstoßkolben stimmt in seinen Abmessungen mit dem Auslaufrohr 3 überein und fluchtet mit diesem. Hohlkolben und Ausstoßkolben sind unabhängig voneinander über hydraulische Kolben 9 bzw. 10 hin- und herbewegbar.In the mixing chamber 2 is a hollow piston 7 is rotatably attached g eord- net which includes a discharge piston. 8 The dimensions of this ejection piston correspond to the outlet pipe 3 and curses with this. Hollow pistons and exhaust pistons can be moved back and forth independently of one another via hydraulic pistons 9 and 10.

Die angußseitige Mischkammerwand 11 bildet in etwa eine Kegelstumpffläche aus, die zur Austrittsöffnung 4 hin gleichmäßig geneigt verläuft. Der Neigungswinkel zur Längsachse des Hohlkolbens 7 liegt zwischen 0 und 90°. Die ande- re Mischkammerwand wird durch die Stirnfläche 12 des Hohlkolbens gebildet, der in die Mischkammer 2 bis zu deren Austrittsöffnung einschiebbar und gegenüber der Mantelfläche der Mischkammer abgedichtet ist. Dabei entsteht zwischen den Flächen 11 und 12 ein Scherspalt, in den die flüssigen Komponenten eingespritzt werden. Für eine Umlenkung, d.h. Drosselung der Komponenten bzw. des Gemischstromes können die den Scherspalt bildenden paßförmigen Flächen 11' und 12' ein Profil aufweisen (Fig. 2).The gate-side mixing chamber wall 11 forms approximately a truncated cone surface, which is evenly inclined towards the outlet opening 4. The angle of inclination to the longitudinal axis of the hollow piston 7 is between 0 and 90 °. The other mixing chamber wall is formed by the end face 12 of the hollow piston, which can be pushed into the mixing chamber 2 up to its outlet opening and is sealed off from the outer surface of the mixing chamber. This creates a shear gap between the surfaces 11 and 12 into which the liquid components are injected. For a deflection, ie throttling of the components or the mixture flow, the fit-shaped surfaces 11 'and 12' forming the shear gap can have a profile (FIG. 2).

Im Betrieb erfolgt solange eine Mischung der mit Druck durch die öffnungen 5 und 6 eingespritzten Komponenten in der Mischkammer 2, wie der Hohlkolben 7 den Eintritt zuläßt. Der Ausstoßkolben 8 kann hierbei zur Drosselung des Zulaufs des Komponentengemischs zur Austrittsöffnung 4 an dieser mit einstellbarem axialem Abstand herangefahren werden. Wenn ein "lischvorgang beendet werden soll, wird der von der Einrichtung 13 angetriebene, rotierende Hohlkolben nach unten bewegt, so daß die Eintrittsöffnungen 5 und 6 verschlossen werden, wobei gleichzeitig ein mechanisches Zwangsreinigen der Mischkammer 2 durch Ausschieben eventueller Gemischreste erfolgt. Der Ausstoßkolben 8 sorgt dann während seiner Bewegung durch das Auslaufrohr 3 für eine endgültige Reinigung.In operation, the components injected with pressure through the openings 5 and 6 are mixed in the mixing chamber 2 as long as the hollow piston 7 permits entry. The ejection piston 8 can in this case be brought up to the outlet opening 4 at an adjustable axial distance in order to throttle the inflow of the component mixture. When a "mixing process is to be ended, the rotating hollow piston driven by the device 13 is moved downward, so that the inlet openings 5 and 6 are closed, while at the same time mechanical forced cleaning of the mixing chamber 2 takes place by pushing out any mixture residues. The ejection piston 8 provides then during its movement through the outlet pipe 3 for a final cleaning.

Die Ausführungsform nach Fig. 3 ist mit einem drehbaren Hohlkolben 7 versehen, der im Bereich der Mischzone einen Doppelkonus aufweist. Die hintere Mischkammerwand 15 bildet dabei ein in axialer Richtung verschiebbarer Kolben 14, dessen dem Hohlkolben gegenüberliegende Fläche 15 annähernd komplementär zur hinteren Fläche 16 des Hohlkolbens ausgebildet ist. Der Kolben 14 enthält die Verlaufleitungen und die Rücklaufleitungen für die einzelnen Komponenten.The embodiment according to FIG. 3 is provided with a rotatable hollow piston 7, one in the region of the mixing zone Has double cone. The rear mixing chamber wall 15 forms a piston 14 which can be displaced in the axial direction and whose surface 15 opposite the hollow piston is approximately complementary to the rear surface 16 of the hollow piston. The piston 14 contains the flow lines and the return lines for the individual components.

Die Ausgestaltung des Hohlkolbens 7 und der zusätzliche Kolben 14 ermöglichen insbesondere die Verarbeitung füllstoffhaltiger Komponenten. Hierfür können die Mischräume 2 und 2', die von den Flächen 11 und 12 bzw. von den Flächen 15 und 16 begrenzt werden, ihrer Größe nach durch Einstellen entsprechender Spaltweiten unabhängig voneinander variiert werden, da die Stellung des Hohlkolbens gegenüber der Mischkammerwand unabhängig von seiner Stellung gegenüber der Position des Kolbens 14 eingestellt werden kann. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß die Vermischung der Komponenten dann am vorteilhaftesten erfolgt, wenn beide Spaltweiten nicht gleich, sondern die hintere Spaltweite der Kammer 2' größer gewählt wird als die der Kammer 2. Die Mischvorrichtung kann dann bei getrennter Zuführung der Komponenten mit wesentlich geringeren Drehzahlen bei gleicher Mischgüte betrieben werden.The design of the hollow piston 7 and the additional piston 14 enable in particular the processing of filler-containing components. For this purpose, the mixing spaces 2 and 2 ', which are delimited by the surfaces 11 and 12 or by the surfaces 15 and 16, can be varied in size independently of one another by setting corresponding gap widths, since the position of the hollow piston relative to the wall of the mixing chamber is independent of it Position relative to the position of the piston 14 can be adjusted. It has been shown that the mixing of the components takes place most advantageously when the two gap widths are not the same, but rather the rear gap width of the chamber 2 'is chosen to be larger than that of the chamber 2. The mixing device can then be supplied with significantly smaller components when the components are fed separately Speeds are operated at the same mixing quality.

Dies wirkt sich auch auf die Auswahl der Dichtung 18 der Welle gegenüber den Komponenten aus, da sich aufgrund der geringeren Drehzahlen und des kleineren Radius der Welle niedrigere Umfangsgeschwindigkeiten ergeben.This also affects the selection of the seal 18 of the shaft with respect to the components, since the lower rotational speeds and the smaller radius of the shaft result in lower peripheral speeds.

Die Reinigung bzw. das Schließen des Mischsystems erfolgt in der Weise, daß der Kolben 14 hydraulisch gegen den Hohlkolben 7 gefahren wird, wobei das im Mischraum 2' befindliche Gemisch in den Mischraum 2 gepreßt wird. Dieser Reinigungsvorgang wird durch die Rotationsbewegung des Hohlkolbens unterstützt. Vor der letzten Phase dieses 'Vorgangs sind dabei die Komponentenventile 17 geschlossen, so daß durch den beim Zurückfahren des Kolbens 14 entstehenden Rückstau kein Reaktionsgemisch in die Ventile einströmen kann. Die Ventile 17 besitzen vorzugsweise eine kegelige Form, die ein selbsttätiges Schließen unterstützt, wobei der Schließvorgang durch Änderung des Komponentendrucks in der Vorlaufleitung bewirkt wird.The cleaning or closing of the mixing system is carried out in such a way that the piston 14 is moved hydraulically against the hollow piston 7, the mixture in the mixing chamber 2 'being pressed into the mixing chamber 2. This cleaning process is supported by the rotational movement of the hollow piston. Before the last phase of this The process, the component valves 17 are closed, so that no reaction mixture can flow into the valves due to the back pressure which occurs when the piston 14 moves back. The valves 17 preferably have a conical shape which supports automatic closing, the closing process being effected by changing the component pressure in the supply line.

Die zweite Phase des Schließvorgangs kann nun ohne Rotation des Hohlkolbens 7 erfolgen, da das im Mischraum 2 befindliche Gemisch bereits ausreichend homogenisiert ist, so daß beim Auspressen in das Auslaufrohr 3 durch die nun gemeinsame Bewegung der Kolben in Richtung auf die angußseitige Mischkammerwand 11 kein Nachlauf entsteht. Die Reinigung des Auslaufrohres erfolgt durch die Hubbewegung des Ausstoßkolbens 8.The second phase of the closing process can now take place without rotation of the hollow piston 7, since the mixture in the mixing chamber 2 is already sufficiently homogenized, so that when pressed into the outlet pipe 3 by the now joint movement of the pistons in the direction of the mixing chamber wall 11 on the gate side, there is no wake arises. The discharge pipe is cleaned by the stroke movement of the discharge piston 8.

Die öffnungsbewegung erfolgt in der Weise, daß zuerst die Spaltweite des Mischraumes 2 eingestellt wird, während die Komponentenventile noch geschlossen sind. Die Komponentenzufuhr erfolgt, nachdem die Rotationsbewegung des Hohlkolbens eingesetzt hat, während des Zurückfahrens des Kolbens 14. Auf diese Weise wird durch das gleichmäßige Füllen des Mischraums 2' vermieden, daß Luft eingemischt wird, bzw. ein unerwünschter Vorlauf entsteht. Die Rotation des Hohlkolbens 7' bewirkt ein gleichmäßiges Füllen des Mischraums 2 sowie eine ausreichende Homogenisierung der einströmenden Komponenten.The opening movement takes place in such a way that the gap width of the mixing chamber 2 is first set while the component valves are still closed. The supply of components takes place after the rotary movement of the hollow piston has started, while the piston 14 is retracting. In this way, the uniform filling of the mixing space 2 'prevents air from being mixed in or an undesired forward flow. The rotation of the hollow piston 7 'causes the mixing chamber 2 to be filled uniformly and the components flowing in to be homogenized sufficiently.

Bei der Verarbeitung von Komponenten, die aufgrund starker Adhäsionskräfte besonders gut an den den Scherspalt bildenden Metallflächen anhaften, so daß eine vollständige Reinigung dieser Flächen nicht mehr gegeben ist, können die Flächen mit Hilfe von in die Mischkammer einschiebbaren Schneidwerkzeugen 19, beispielsweise im Abstand von mehre- ren Zyklen oder vor dem Abschalten der Mischvorrichtung, von Gemischresten befreit werden (Fig. 4).When processing components that adhere particularly well to the metal surfaces forming the shear gap due to strong adhesive forces, so that complete cleaning of these surfaces is no longer possible, the surfaces can be inserted into the mixing chamber with the aid of cutting tools 19, for example at a distance of several - Ren cycles or before switching off the mixing device, be cleared of mixture residues (Fig. 4).

Die erfindungsgemäßen Mischvorrichtungen eignen sich in vorteilhafter Weise für die Herstellung füllstoffhaltiger Kunststoffe. Die können dabei unmittelbar in die Scherspalte eingebracht werden. Ein Vorvermischen der Feststoffe mit einer der Kunststoffkomponenten erübrigt sich. Bei entsprechend fester Konsistenz unterstützen die beim Zusammenpressen der Kolben eingeschlossenen Feststoffe den Reinigungsvorgang dadurch, daß von den vorangegangenen Takten verbliebene Gemischreste abgerieben werden.The mixing devices according to the invention are advantageously suitable for the production of filler-containing plastics. They can be inserted directly into the shear gap. There is no need to premix the solids with one of the plastic components. With a correspondingly firm consistency, the solids enclosed when the pistons are pressed together support the cleaning process by rubbing off any remaining mixture from the previous cycles.
